    Two piano players appear in the Renee Fleming episode, yet only Gerald Moore is credited. One plays all the way thru the intro and Renee Fleming's first song ("Vissi D’Arte"), however, a different piano player appears to accompany Rufus Wainwright when he sings “L’Absence”. Does anyone know who these two different people are, or did the first guy just change clothes and get a facial?
    P.S. Gerald Moore is a famed English pianist/accompanist who died in 1987. Is Elvis playing games?

      The pianist accompanying Rufus on "L'Absence" is singer-songwriter Gabriel Kahane. Hope that helps!

        Hey, thanks a lot. I wonder why they didn't credit him. Did you just recognize him cause you know what he looks like, or is there another place I should check for such info?
        Now if I can just nail down the other guy's ID. He could really be Gerald Moore, but the only web stuff I can find is for the famous older gentleman who passed away. Thanks again.
